In this edition of Grim's Dungeons of Doom, we are going to deal with the creation of bone piles for our mini dungeon. These can be used as debris or even better (as I plan on doing) as undead respawn markers. Every respectable dungeon should have a few of these to warn those pesky adventurer… Continue reading Grim’s Dungeons of Doom: Dem bones, Dem bones: Bone Pile Respawner Markers
Well, here I am again, with a later than scheduled terrain making post, I know it's been a while, but haven't had much chance to do much with a PC for what seems like ages. So, while not fitting the whole dungeon theme entirely, we kick off this belated Grim's Dungeons of Doom article with… Continue reading Grim’s Dungeons of Doom: Tavern Tales: Raising the bar! Making a Tavern bar!
If you remember In most Fighting Fantasy books from the distant past, you always had the opportunity to heal your depleted Stamina score by munching on your provisions that you either had already, or simply found during the course of your adventure. So with this episode of Grim's Dungeons of Doom, that's what we're going… Continue reading Grim’s Dungeons of Doom: Restore 2 Stamina; Miniature provision markers.
Every self respecting cheesy stock fantasy dungeon environment needs barrels? Right?

So with that in mind, here's an excellent tutorial for terrain builders here, reblogged with… Continue reading Terrain: “BBQ’d Rolling Pin” Cobblestone Roads
Compared to the Encounter elements set from the previous crowdfunding spotlight, this terrain block system looks like something you'd find in a primary school (very similar to the counting block type learning toy you do still find, trust me, I have two under 7's!) Again some of you will be calling me the Simon Cowell… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Table Top Blocks Kickstarter
So again with more Crowdfunders for us freaks and geeks, this time in the form of two similar projects on kickstarter. First of being the Encounter Elements encounter bricks construction system. These are geared towards the GM/DM who just hasn't got time to create some terrain for the various enounters one might need to show… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: The Encounter Brick Construction System from Encounter Elements on Kickstarter
WTF!? Exactly! I thought I'd kick off this post with these surreal and barmy miniatures from Ekmel Sword Miniatures from over on Kickstarter. Crazy is not the word for these sets of what are termed"sexy" 28mm Orcs on offer here, but hey, you know me, I love those crackpot mini ideas! As you can see,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Sexy Orcs Kickstarter by Ekmel Sword
So, outside of the Grim's Dungeons of Doom tutorials, I think I needed to have yet another sub-set of brain fart articles to cover other aspects from time to time, so here is 4xD (which stands for Dungeon developments, discourse and dialogue) in which i'll be babbling on about my gameworld Plexus (which I wouldn't… Continue reading 4xD: But hey Mr Grim, I wanna’ game my dungeon in 15mm….
